Bookcase Usage

The Bookcase in Terraria is either a typical piece of furniture or a crafting station. In particular, this item’s purpose for the game’s vanilla PC version is to decorate homes and spaces. However, it can become a crafting station for certain weapons in the console, mobile, and tModLoader versions of the game. The items you can craft with a Bookcase in Terraria (if you’re playing the game in a particular system) are the following:
  • Crystal Storm: 1x Spell Tome, 20x Crystal Shard, and 15x Soul of Light
  • Cursed Flames: 1x Spell Tome, 20x Cursed Flame, and 15x Soul of Night
  • Golden Shower: 1x Spell Tome, 20x Ichor, and 15x Soul of Night
Note: 30x Crystal Shard, Cursed Flame, and Ichor are required to craft the items if you’re playing the Nintendo 3DS and Windows Phone versions of Terraria.
